INTO THE DARKNESS OF THIS WORLD
Into the shadows of the night
Into this loveless place You came
Lightened our burdens, eased our pain
And made these hearts Your home
Into the darkness once again
Oh come, Lord Jesus, come
Come with Your love
To make us whole
Come with Your light
To lead us on
Driving the darkness
Far from our souls
O come, Lord Jesus, come
Into the longing of our souls
Into these heavy hearts of stone
Shine on us now Your piercing light
Order our lives and souls aright
By grace and love unknown
Until in You our hearts unite
Oh come, Lord Jesus, come
O Holy Child, Emmanuel
Hope of the ages, God with us
Visit again this broken place
Till all the earth declares Your praise
And Your great mercies own
Now let Your love be born in us
O come, Lord Jesus, come
(Last Chorus)
Come in Your glory
Take Your place
Jesus, the Name above all names
We long to see You face to face
O come, Lord Jesus, come
